Hi all,
Just had our Plusnet new line installed- had a fault on the phone line, which is fixed- but am now having BB troubles.
But of a weird one- running a Linksys router + Win7 PC plugged in via Ethernet.
I am able to run a nslookup from the PC, which resolves the IP address- but I am unable to ping anything, including Googles DNS 8.8.8.8? Not seen anything like this before
I can however ping 8.8.8.8 from the router itself.
Router was and has always worked flawlessly with our old TalkTalk line.
Any ideas?

You haven't got any DNS set on your computer network settings have you?

Incorrect gateway on your computer would cause these symptoms I believe - follow 30FTTC06's advice and paste here
